Legacy Claude Code Skill Execution Pattern
- Core design rules:
- This module was automatically migrated from Claude-Research-Paper-OS.
- Rely on provided shell scripts and reference files in the local directory.
4. Implementation Workflow
LaTeX Formatting
Set up and manage LaTeX formatting for academic papers.
Input
$0 — Action: setup, fix, check$1 — Venue name (for setup) or .tex file path (for fix/check)
Scripts
Pre-submission format checker
python /home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-latex-formatting/scripts/latex_checker.py paper/main.tex --venue neurips --check-anon
Checks: word count, required sections, TODO markers, anonymization, mismatched environments, content stats.
Validate citations and references
python /home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-citation-management/scripts/validate_citations.py \
--tex paper/main.tex --bib paper/references.bib --check-figures
Clean LaTeX text (fix special characters)
python /home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-latex-formatting/scripts/clean_latex.py \
--input paper/main.tex --output paper/main_cleaned.tex
Replaces special/non-UTF8 characters with LaTeX equivalents, skips math environments.
Key flags: --dry-run, --tables-only
Auto-fix after checking
python /home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-latex-formatting/scripts/latex_checker.py paper/main.tex --venue neurips --fix
Runs checks then applies clean_latex.py fixes, writing to main_fixed.tex.
References
- Venue specs, project structure, packages, commands:
/home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-latex-formatting/references/venue-templates.md
Action: setup
Create the project directory structure and main.tex for the specified venue. Use the template from references/venue-templates.md.
Action: fix
Fix common LaTeX issues: unescaped special chars, math mode errors, float placement, overfull/underfull boxes, cross-reference issues.
Action: check
Run latex_checker.py for pre-submission validation. Check page count, anonymization, required sections, TODO markers.

5. Decision Framework
| Decision Area | Preferred Option | Alternative | Selection Rule |
|---|
| Skill Usage | Utilize bundled scripts | Manual execution | Prefer automated scripts if available. |
6. Validation Strategy
Functional Validation
- Ensure bundled scripts execute without runtime errors.
- Validate that the output matches the expected JSON or Markdown schema.
7. Benchmarks and SLO Targets
- Execution Latency:
< 30s for standard local script execution.
- Quality: Output adheres to constraints specified in the prompt references.
8. Risks and Controls
- Risk: Bundled scripts rely on missing absolute paths (
/home/lebi/SKILLS/agent-module-claudeos-...).
- Control: The paths should be mapped or modified to reflect current working paths.
9. Agent Execution Checklist
10. Reuse Notes
Adapt only:
- Command-line arguments for the bundled shell/python scripts.
